| Abstract: Widespread dissemination of behavior analytic principles at the undergraduate level is vital to the future of behavior analysis, as the development of future practitioners and researchers is facilitated by introducing students to behavior analysis early in their academic careers. More specifically, the promotion of behavior analysis through both effective teaching and the establishment of behavior-analytic programs at liberal arts universities is essential, as liberal arts universities are attended by many undergraduates, and many of these students continue on to graduate study. Panelists will discuss the promotion, dissemination, and teaching of behavior analysis at liberal arts universities. Discussion will include strategies for effective teaching at liberal arts universities, including effective methods of introducing students to behavior analysis; experiences in establishing behavior-analytic programs of study at liberal arts universities, and how these programs have related to previously existing Psychology programs; and strategies for obtaining academic positions in behavior analysis at liberal arts universities. |
